Science & Justice Training Program celebrates 10-year anniversary

Started in 2010 with a grant from the National Science Foundation, the Science & Justice Training Program (SJTP) celebrates its 10th anniversary.

The SJTP is creating the next generation of path-breaking researchers who have the tools needed to not only be powerful stewards of socially robust science, engineering, and technology but to become more engaged as citizens concerned with racial, gender, and economic justice.

The introductory seminar of the SJTP, Science & Justice: Experiments in Collaboration, will be offered again Winter 2022 as BME/FMST/SOCY 268A and ANTH 267A and taught by James Doucet-Battle (Sociology). The course brings early career science and engineering graduate and masters students together with social science, humanities and arts students to foster experimental collaborative research practices and models collaborative conversations that pair a science and engineering scholar with a scholar from the social sciences, humanities and arts. Students develop the skills of interdisciplinary collaboration, ethical deliberation, social and political analysis. Enrollment is by permission and limited to 15. Contact James Doucet-Battle and Colleen Stone to get on the list for a permission code (once available).

Learn more about our History, the Training Program, a cross-comparison study of the program, and meet the 10th anniversary cohort.
